It's All About Him

I am amazed at how we as fundamental Baptist try our best to prove that it is all about us and our goodness sometimes. We act as if we think we deserve heaven because of our good works. We have our list of do's and don'ts down pat, as if that impresses God. I am reminded that it's all about Christ. It's all about His righteousness, how He died for us. He chose us. He loved us when we were unlovable. That amazes me. Christ first loved me. He knows me like no one else does, yet He still loves me. Yes, I believe in having a set amount of standards and living a clean life. However, I also realize that those standards do nothing to make me more worthy of the grace of God than anything else. Nothing I could ever do would make me worthy. It is only by God's good grace. I thank Him for the lesson. The way I see it, we would do well to remember, it's all about Him.
